No 10 White Oud

Hey! Guys! What are you doing on that page?! It's absolutely feminine scent! And it's gorgeous! You've got the Dark Saphir and Onyx Pearl and I even ready to give you Dark Amber .... but this one?! No! Go away! :) An amazing blend of something heavenly where the musk notes are very dominant and around them some flowers, patchouli, and oud are dancing very complicated dance. Strange thing, at the beginning you dive into the saturated and dense substance and as you go up, the scent became lighter and lighter. But it doesn't mean it fades away. No. Staying power is overwhelming. But it seems like the whole pyramid just up side down: base notes come first and the top notes last forever on my skin. Beautiful, complex, and unforgettable perfume!

OF COURSE THERE IS NO OUD BECAUSE IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE WHAT AN OUD WOULD SMELL LIKE IF THERE WAS ONE IN SCANDINAVIA. IT'S INTERPRETIVE. I LIKE IT.

I got my hands on this scent when I bought Agonist sample box. I have tried alle the fragrances, and are writing reviews and my opinions on their works. My first impression was positive and it felt as a clean and fresh feminine scent. So what do I get out of this fragrance? This is indeed a very familiar scent as many soap bars and cream soaps are scented with a combo like this. Like Dove cream soap. Classic rose patchouli and ylang ylang combo. Even though it's not listed I get a note of green tea? Anyone? Anyone claiming that this frag contains oud is the joker of the pack, I have come across white oud fragrances, but none as anonymous as this soapy mess. Also the scent diminishes quickly, and the scent is gone after 1 - 1 1/2 hour. Really disappointed in this fragrance. Overall rating: 2/10

Unisex but masculine leaning. The smell is unexpected. It reminded me of my parents vintage Amway La Collection Classique perfume samples. It's woody and leathery. I can picture this being a room fragance. And I can understand why it's oud without having any oud in it. I did not get any florals. Honestly it mostly smells kind of dated, strange and complex.

It smells like washing powder and Mentos. Cheap and synthetic. I had high expectations on this one but it's bad, really bad. Agonist is a great house with very nice scents, like Dark Saphir and Onyx Pearl. But they didn't success with this one. I can't smell the Agonist in it.

And by the way... There is no oud in this one. One can read what notes it's in it on flacon and oud is not there.

This one reminds me allot of soapy ambergris, and white lilies mix. It's quite soapy rather than oudi, like a foamy soapy mix. So it's more of white musk with ylang, white floral, & hints of vetiver. Violets, and roses are there and no oud detected. I remember long ago when it was first released allot of people who used it claimed it's a flop cause it was too weak and very light compared to their other fragrances. It is fair for the ones who seeks clean musk, and soapy foamy mixture, but i don't see it as a standout for a 10 years anniversary! it should've been a hit and a creation that would burst their brand up, & unfortunately not this one.

@Q80 Just stumpbled on your review by accident, & what you said about it being soapy rather than oudy really caught my eye, because I would say exactly the same about Bond No9 Bond No9 , or Signature as it's popularly called, which is an extremely soapy fragrance with oud. I have written a review of it in which I strongly emphasise this quality of the fragrance, and was motivated by the same puzzlement as to how an oudy fragrance can come across as soapy . I think really this is just part of the wondrousness of the oud note, in the way it can make so many so different olfactory faces , depending on how precisely it is treated & nurtured.

Vamp's part with whiffs of nail polish remover in the first few moments. The only moment that you can interpret in a European oud. I believe. A little later I catch roses, lily of the valley and a bubble of toiletries and a Cadonett hairspray begins to grow giant. Over time it condenses into a floral hand soap and remains so until the end. I don't like all this moss at all. Feminine part with a wake dated to then recover in a perfume close to the skin and masculine. In both cases mature and familiar and simply. Personally?... I would have celebrated the anniversary differently.

This is the imagining of a nordic oud, hence the "white" in the name. It is not an actual oud. It's supposed to give the feeling of what an oud would be in a different environment. The opening is definitely lily of the valley/ylang ylang. Then it stays stuck in a white musk that smells stale after a while. I'm glad I only bought a sample

I had a good experience with this: on me it smells clean, longevity and sillage either are good. Musc is the main note I get. The very drydown gives a tiny touch of oud given by the mixture of different ingredients: the ingredients list doesn't include any oud indeed.

It Sucks ....Right To the Point
